We're aware of a peculiar forum glitch that's causing some subforums to be locked.

Due to the lateness at this time, it might be a while before the glitch can be remedied, because despite my best efforts and as far as I can tell, everything seems to be working fine admin-side. It may have …

"Gotcha," I whispered back, squinting at the walls and floor to watch where I was going. I didn't want any of us stepping into any boobytraps either, "What did the brigands look like, by the way? Just so we know what we're up against."

"Ordinary ruffians," she responded as she led, keeping her eyes keenly on the walls just in case she needed to warn anyone behind her of a potential danger. "Not intimidating individually, but when together, they are quite a nuisance."

Though, the fact that we have not ran into them raises some concern about what else is with us in the Lich.

- Briony -

"I have my brothers to help me out with that," I told him with a faint smile. I was about to speak further before my toes caught on something and caused me to stumble forward. I caught myself before I crashed upon the ground, whipping my head back to see what the culprit was.

From what I could see in the dark, the item was slender and ivory. After a moment, my face paled in realization -- they were human bones. "No!" I gasped, stepping back. My foot then landed upon something else... Something heavy and metal that clanged when kicked.

~Kiel~I stay silent as I move, not wanting to risk being discovered by the sound of my voice traveling through this monster. I keep a close eye on the others and for traps as we traverse the beast but so far it seemed as if we were doing well. I was anxious to get to Briony and while the downward slope was encouraging, the fact that we had no idea where we were going did nothing to quell my nerves.

"Unless some other people we don't know about came in here, then it's got to be." I squat down, picking up one of the bones between my thumb and index finger. "Frankly, I'm more worried about what did this."

I gazed down from behind him, finding the sight grotesque. My stomach churned -- not with worry, but with disgust. Don't be stupid, Briony! You should be worried about the killer, not the skeleton! "Do you think it's that deep-rooted evil the tree mentioned?" With that, I glanced down at the leaf shield. We would have this, if nothing else...

Suddenly, my eyes moved up. There was faint movement in the darkness from where we came. At first, I believed it to be the culprit of whoever killed the owner of the bones, and I stood straight with a sharp gasp. However, my vision adjusted, and a wave of relief poured over me at the sight of two nearly identical faces.

"Pippin! Kiel!" I gushed, rushing forward towards the group with my arms outspread. "I was worried I wouldn't find you again!"
